Hey, hey, hey! Mamma is out of the hospital and doing fine!! So all is well! No worries!
For the past three weeks I have been in this Musical Theater Camp and we are finally putting on our show this weekend. Our theme is 'Back to the 80's' where we sing and dance to songs all from the 80's. Hopefully I'll be able to put something on here after the show so you can see some of it. So, it's all good! :)

Poor, Poor Mom
Well, poor mother dearest has been checked into the hospital for an infected intestine track (something like that...). She'll be there for a few days, so luckily it hit her over a weekend and she doesn't have to miss too much school. But still, everything that isn't normal by any degree, happens to mom. She's had her appendix removed, since you don't need it in order to survive, shingles, Meniere's Disease, (who's even heard of that?), and now this. What the HECK!!! I really do feel for mom. Dad came home today after visiting her at the Hospital and when he didn't look very happy, I honestly, feared the worst. Luckily he just told us what was wrong. She had a Catscan and that's how they discovered it, and there was blood in her urine, so that definitely does not sound too good. And all that they can really do for is it antibiotics. So keep her in your prayers your fingers crossed that all goes well for Mom and that she feels better.

Recently...
Well! I would say that many things have happened recently. Let's see, we joined GOLD'S GYM, I won Wrangler Idol at school, school's finally OVER, Gideon got his first a job at Peter Piper Pizza, Dad lost his job and is searching for one, Mom is doing more school over the summer, Maria and Steve had their baby a while ago, Nephi and Kirsten moved to Austin (WAHOO!!), Sadie and Harley are going to come and enjoy our company down here in Texas for a year, and Mom and I recently just got back from Girls Camp which was WAY better this year than it was last year.
I will now go into detail of all of these things that have happened recently. Heh-hum!!
We joined GOLD'S GYM, to get fit and healthy over the summer since apparently they had a good deal for joining over the summer, therefore, we joined. It's been really nice actually. We all go and work out everyday in the morning. Dad swims, Gid lifts tons of weights and plays basketball, I run and do the machines, and Mom walks and does all the stuff that her trainer wants her to.
If you don't know what Wrangler Idol is, which I'm sure you all do by now, it's a show that my school puts on at the very end of each year, and only choir students can participate in it. It's called Wrangler Idol because we're the Wood Wranglers and we don't want to have people getting confused between American Idol and Wrangler Idol, even though it's basically the same thing...So, you try out with a song that you want to sing. If you do good you go to Round 2 and try out with the same song again. If you do good and make it into the top eleven, then you get to sing in the show. I made it in this year, as I did last year, and sang Walk Away by Kelly Clarkson. I won the show and got and enormous trophy from it. It was extremely fun.:)
SCHOOL'S OUT!! YIPEE! Thank goodness, now we swim all day long and get tan all day long! Gideon is now a Junior in High School, (weird right?) and I am an eighth grader in Middle School. Unfortunately for Mom & Dad, their school doesn't really end. Bummer...
Gideon has been working hard and has been applying everywhere trying to find a summer job. He finally landed one at Peter Piper Pizza and actually starts today! Mom wants him to get another job since he would only be working part time, so we'll see if he does or doesn't! He also is getting to be very close to getting his permit to start driving. I'm kind of nervous about this, especially since I'm the one in the backseat.
Yes, poor father has been laid off, sorta. I think he said that he was down to only four days a month, so he's basically laid off. He has been looking for jobs and has been applying like a mad man. He's had several interviews that would be wonderful if he got the job. They're right up his alley in teaching teachers how to teach, plus they pay well, and have good benefits. It's just that they're not always in town either. He's been interviewed in Houston and Austin, So we'll see what job he ends up getting too!
Mom is doing more school over the summer in order to get all of the classes that she needs for nursing school in. She has been doing studying and such to get high scores, and I think that so far she's been doing really well with it.
Yes we all already know that Maria & Steve had their baby, but I just had to put it in our blog because their family, so THEY HAD THEIR BABY! WOOHOO! His name is Creedence and if you want all the full details go to their blog. If they have all of details and pictures I'm not going to put them on here, so go visit them to get the big picture. All that I'll say is that he is absolutely adorable and chubby. So for now, my lips are sealed...
A while ago Nephi & Kirsten moved out of freezing Utah, and came to live down here in wonderfully HOT Texas!! YES!! It's been really fun having them down here, because we get to see them every fast Sunday and holidays and such. They moved down here because Nephi got a job with computer security or something like that, I don't know, it's too techy for me...Anyways, they're down here now and it's awesome!:)
Sadie and Harley and coming back down yet again because Utah is apparently too cold for any living person, so no one should live there, just a heads up...Actually no, that's not the real reason, Sadie doesn't want to be around Glenn anymore and wants a divorce, so they're moving back here with us! WOOHOO!! We'll be picking them up along with Jazzy on our trip to Utah. So It will be a full house, and a very fun summer!
Mom & I just got back from Girls Camp on Saturday, and it was lots of fun! The theme this year was Can You Imagine from Alma 5:16. It was cool because each level had a different make believe place. 1st years were Under the Sea, 2nd years were Pixie Hollow, 3rd years were Wizard of OZ, 4th years were Alice in Wonderland, and the YCL's or JC's if you prefer, were the Lion King. So there you have it! Girls Camp was lot's of fun, especially since we didn't have to sleep on the Dining Hall floor this year. (That happened last year, long story...) And, we were supposed to get completely rained out from really bad thunderstorms but we didn't and got the nice breeze instead! We all fasted on the previous Sunday for good weather and that we would be safe through it and we all were. The rain went all around us and it never hit us. So it was all good!:)
Well, I do believe that's all that's happened recently...Have a good one! Laterz.:)

Sports are Life
This year now that I am in the seventh grade, I am allowed to play sports. So far this year I have already participated in two, Volleyball and Basketball. Plus, both Gideon and I play on the church basketball teams which are a blast. Gideon, who is a sophomore in high school, plays soccer on both the JV and Varsity teams. Did you ever wonder what the word sophomore means or where it comes from? It's Greek, sophos means "wise" + moros means "foolish, dull"=sophomore "a wise, foolish, and dull teenager". HA! Anyways, here are some pictures of Gid and I in action.

2010
It is 12:23 in the morning and it is officially 2010. We stayed up late, playing our Wii and watching The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. As of right now they are breaking into M's fortress and are about to be caught. Quite exciting.
Well, I suppose that since the New Year is upon us I should list some Resolutions:
- I don't really like how everybody, especially us Americans, always make it a goal to lose weight. So I won't put that as a resolution, just as a very high and important goal for me.:)
- As a family goal, I would like to go out and do much more things as a family. Like going hiking, I did that Yesterday, or in other words 40 minutes ago. I had so much fun, how come we never do that?
- And as a goal that I think that we all should share, just be a happier and joyful people through these odd times. Yes it will be hard at certain points, but I think that that might help everyone a tad bit.

Harley William Fleming
Sadie had been in the hospital because of her pregnancy. She had been leaking amniotic fluid and so she had been staying there until she would deliver. Well that moment came on Thursday October 1, 2009. Sadie had felt huge gushes of blood and contacted the nurses about it. These gushes kept coming, and so the nurse called the doctor. Turn's out that the placenta, what the baby is inside of in the uterus, was completely detached from the uterus wall. The doctor said that they were going to take it and do a sea section. Eighteen minutes later, Harley William Fleming was born, 2 lbs 3oz 13.5" long. His head going around was 9". He is now doing very well and is progressing very fast.
When he was born his eyes were still fused shut, but yesterday he opened his eyes and saw everything with his blue, blue eyes. Both Sadie and Glenn have the light blue eyes. Of course Harley got the gene and now has them. Sadie-Belle has a webpage about him that has lots of pictures at carepages.com. She calls it Superman Jr. She calls Glenn superman, and Harley looks a lot like Glenn, so she calls Harley Superman Jr.

And so,the conclusion of this summer is almost here and many things have happened in it's presence.
School ended in June, welcoming the Summer vacation. I then went to my first Girls Camp at John Knox Ranch. I only got to sleep in my cabin once,the other two nights we slept on the floor in the dining hall due to rain. Nonetheless I had a good time. A week later I went to a Strengthening & Conditioning Camp to make me buff and strong. During that same month we found out that Sadie was pregnant. Also, our pool turned green and we were not able to swim in it for some time.Very sad occasion.
In July, we decided to drain the pool,clean it, then fill it back up again. And so we did. Only to realize that the pump was broken and we weren't able to fix it. So we swam in it every day so that the pool wasn't unstirred for too long. But,without the pump and with the heat, the pool turned green yet again. And so now we have only a few inches of very green water in our backyard.
But on a lighter note, I went to a Science Camp for 2 weeks. Loads of fun. My most memorable thing: the brain. On the 3rd day of Science Camp,we were given the high privilege of disecting a brain. So, before we start, the teacher walks over to a bucket and pulls out a nice big juicy human brain. He sets it on a tray and walks around the room with it to show every body. Then he walks over to the chalkboard to write something down and sets the brain on the table, the table that I happen to be sitting at. And so, naturally, I stare at the brain disgusted, and wishing that it will be removed from my sight as soon as possible. But, instead, the teacher finished writing on the board and left to talk to the rest of class. And so I am left with this brain set right in front of me, to look at for 3 hours.Joy. But besides that the rest of my experiences were very nice.
Then we found out that Maria was pregnant also. Very exciting. So we now have two babies on the way, one in January and one in March. And Sadie-Belle had her birthday on the 22nd and she is now 19.
This month, August, not too much has happened. Jazzy flew out to Utah to see her friends weddings and stayed with Elizabeth and her family. She recently came home and now our house is loud and happy again. Next week Maria should be coming down and staying for almost a week which should be lots of fun. And Elizabeth is still deciding if they want to come down or not. Then on the 22nd is Mother's birthday and on the 24th school starts up again! Crazy how fast this summer has gone by. And now comes not only the conclusion of Summer, but also this post.
See ya!
